Thyroid Autoimmunity During Universal Salt Iodisation-Possible Short-Term Modulation with Longer-Term Stability.
Nutrients
December 2024
Thyroid Research Group, Division of Infection and Immunity, Cardiff University School of Medicine, Cardiff CF14 4XN, UK.
Universal salt iodisation (USI) plays an essential role in the provision of iodine (I) to populations worldwide. Countries adopting USI programmes, adhering to strict criteria laid down by expert organisations such as the Iodine Global Network, are estimated to have reduced the prevalence of I deficiency by 75% (protecting 720 million individuals worldwide). Despite this success, doubts have been raised as to the desirability of continuing such programmes because of (a) the need to reduce salt intake for cardiovascular prevention and (b) the induction of thyroid autoimmunity.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the immune-mediated loss of pancreatic β-cells. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) is a transcription factor which is crucial for cellular responses to low oxygen. Here, we investigate the role of β-cell HIF-1α in β-cell death and diabetes after exposure to multiple low-dose streptozotocin (MLDS).

Soft tissue reconstruction in the lower limbs presents a significant challenge, particularly when addressing defects in the distal third of the leg, ankle, and foot. The reverse sural flap reliant on the perforating branches of the peroneal artery has emerged as a versatile option, offering a solution for patients for whom microsurgical techniques are not feasible. Despite its advantages, the procedure carries inherent risks, especially in populations with underlying conditions, such as venous insufficiency, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes, as well as in elderly patients, where the likelihood of flap necrosis is elevated.

Nursing Department, Ministry of Health, Jazan 45142, Saudi Arabia.
: The link between celiac disease (CD) and type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been well-documented in the medical literature and is thought to be due to a shared genetic predisposition in addition to environmental triggers. This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence and biopsy-proven CD (PBCD) prevalence in individuals with T1D from Saudi Arabia and identify their clinical characteristics and the impact on glycemic control. : A total of 969 children and adolescents with confirmed T1D were investigated.
